Functional Description
The 330101‑00‑53‑05‑02‑05 probe operates as part of a three‑component transducer system consisting of the probe, extension cable, and Proximitor sensor. The probe generates a voltage output proportional to the distance between the probe tip and the rotating shaft surface, enabling accurate monitoring of:
The 8 mm probe design offers a well‑defined linear range suitable for most industrial rotating machinery. Its ClickLoc connector ensures secure electrical contact, while the non‑armored cable configuration supports installations in protected routing environments.

FAQ
Q: Is the probe compatible with older 3300 systems? A: Yes. The 3300 XL series maintains backward compatibility when used with matched extension cables and Proximitor sensors.
Q: What is the typical linear range of an 8 mm probe? A: The 8 mm probe typically provides a linear range of approximately 2 mm, depending on calibration and target material.
Q: Can this probe be used for Keyphasor applications? A: Yes. The probe supports phase reference and speed measurement when paired with the appropriate Proximitor module.
